While chatting with The Hollywood Reporter at the Toronto Film Festival, Tran explained her motivations behind the impassioned op-ed and her doubts over whether or not she'll return to the public forum that is the Internet.

"I felt like I wanted to write something that was honest, that truly came from me and I don't know if I'll ever go back," she said.

In The Last Jedi (written and directed by Looper's Rian Johnson), Tran portrayed Rose Tico, a lowly Resistance member that ends up going on a wild adventure with Finn (John Boyega) in an attempt to disable the First Order's hyperspace tracking capabilities. Her character delivers the now-famous line of: “That's how we're gonna win. Not fighting what we hate; saving what we love.”
